I forgot to talk about Griffey in the mist of all this perfect game stuff. He is one of my all time faves and it sucks to see him go. If he stayed healthy, he would have CRUSHED the HR record, **** Bonds, Griffey would have gotten close to 800, and best of all, WITHOUT ROIDS! We'll miss you Kenny!

I'll never do anything like spit or throw a ball, but I definitely let umpires know if they've blown the call. Kid missed 1st base by 3 feet running on a bases clearing triple in the 7th inning of a tie game and the ump missed it. Ridiculous.

There is screwing up a call because of human error, and then there is just being lazy. I run up and down the lines to make sure I'm close. The teams seem to be much more accepting of calls when I do that. Still, it's not always a fun gig.
